Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 95 Poison Never Dies: Has this child been opened yet?

the other side.

Just as everyone expected, Du Busi and Kong Deming had already led Huo Yuhao out of the city and arrived at a remote mountain.

They didn't actually fight, but it was close, because the two were arguing so heatedly that they looked like they were about to come to blows.

"Kong Deming, what nonsense are you talking about? You just met Yuhao a year earlier, what are you pretending to be so arrogant about?"

"Let me tell you, I don't care. Yuhao's talent is obvious to all, and he even has a Body Spirit Martial Soul. I must take him away and bring glory to my Body Spirit Sect!!"

"Do you know what it means for someone of Yuhao's age and level to achieve a silver-level awakening of his martial soul? Do you know how to help this child achieve a gold-level awakening of his martial soul? Staying at Sun Moon Academy will only delay this child's future!"

Kong Deming stopped pretending. He already knew this guy had this kind of temper, so why should he pretend to be polite?

"Come on, even if I've only taken Yuhao as my disciple for a year, I was the one who met him first. Our master-disciple relationship is right there in front of us. What, you trying to cheat me? Let me tell you, not a chance!"

"Besides, I don't know the method for the second awakening of the Gold-level Martial Soul, but you say that Sun and Moon delayed Yuhao's future, that's pure bullshit!"

With anger on his face, Du Bu Si summoned his martial soul, and nine soul rings appeared: two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red. The purple ones were almost black, and the black ones were almost red.

Even though Kong Deming had seen this extraordinary Soul Ring configuration several times, he still couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

Without wasting words, he said, "Old man, if you're not convinced, let's have a match. Stop talking nonsense. I can even give you a handicap with one hand!"

"Besides, what's the use of a Soul Guidance Master? With such great talent as Yuhao, he should pursue the path of Martial Soul cultivation. I'm confident I can train him into a top expert on the continent. Your Soul Guidance Device? Forget it, it will only delay Yuhao's future!"

Kong Deming's eyelids twitched. "Do I, a near-level 10 Soul Master, need to engage in a Soul Battle with you?" But he couldn't let his guard down verbally.

Because both sides knew that neither had any real intention of fighting, otherwise Poison Undying could have simply stayed out of the game and watched Sun Moon and Shrek clash.

Moreover, if he couldn't be poisoned to death, that would be truly unreasonable. Given his temper, he would have already taken action, instead of talking so much nonsense. After their joint attack on Shrek Academy in the previous competition, they already knew each other's general ideas.

What we're really debating now is which path Huo Yuhao will take in the future: soul tools or his own martial soul cultivation.

Also, although neither of them said it, they both understood each other's intentions; even though Du Busi wanted to become a teacher, he did.

Kong Deming remained calm. "The advantage is in my hands. Why should I bother with this brute?"

"Heh, so what if it's a soul tool? Did it eat your rice? And you're telling me to give you a hand? How can you brag like that? I'll beat the shit out of you."

Alright, alright, Huo Yuhao, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines, finally understood what an old rascal was. Even if Xiao Hongchen practiced for several more years, he still wouldn't be able to reach this level of trash talk.

What about sunflower seeds, beverages, and mineral water?

The two old men argued for a while, neither willing to give in, and then they fell into an eerie silence.

Can you believe they suddenly sat down and stared at Huo Yuhao?

"What?"

Huo Yuhao's performance was already superb, and the master and apprentice had anticipated these things. The reason they were still arguing was simply because Kong Deming was trying to gain more benefits and leverage.

Only things that are hard to obtain can receive the most attention and importance.

The teacher had already discussed these things with him, but some arguments were inevitable, so that Du Busi would have no doubts.

The poison-free Bao changed his demeanor, his sharp words to Kong Deming vanished, replaced by a gentle tone, like that of a wise and patient elder.

“Yuhao, you’re still young. All you’ve been exposed to on Sun Moon Island are low-level things like soul tools. You have no idea how powerful your original martial soul will be after achieving a second awakening at the gold level.”

“I know that your martial soul consists of eyes and the brain connected to them. Although I don’t know how you did it, Yuhao, your martial soul has achieved a second awakening at the silver level. This is an extremely rare thing even in the entire Body Sect.”

"Believe me, Yuhao, soul tools are not suitable for you. Developing your original martial soul to its fullest potential is the path you should take." "When the time comes, I will pass on to you the secret techniques of the Body Sect. I am confident that I can make you the strongest on the entire continent, and no one will be your match!"

"Who are you calling low-class?" Kong Deming had barely opened his mouth when Du Busi raised his right hand and pinched his mouth shut.

"Don't interrupt, you old man!"

Du Bu Si continued to increase his bargaining chips, trying to sway Huo Yuhao.

"Did you see my spirit rings just now? Three 100,000-year spirit rings, Yuhao. As long as you come to the Body Sect, I guarantee that as long as you break through to the Soul Saint realm, with the Body Sect's secret techniques, your spirit rings will be just like mine, all 100,000-year spirit rings."

"At that time, I will personally lead the sect elders to hunt souls in the Star Dou Great Forest for you, and I guarantee that you will no longer have to worry about the next 100,000 years!"

"A body full of 100,000-year-old soul bones, how about that!"

Poison Undying is not like Yan Shaozhe, who can just give you a 100,000-year soul ring as he says he will, even at the cost of triggering a beast tide.

He had seen the age limits of Huo Yuhao's first few spirit rings. Although he didn't know what method he used, the excessive spirit ring ratio could only mean one thing: his physical fitness and mental strength were far superior to those of other people.

Even I back then, at this age, couldn't have achieved what Yuhao has, and neither could my own brother.

Furthermore, with the second awakening of his original martial soul, and with Poison Undying's guarantee, Huo Yuhao's future is absolutely promising, and he will definitely be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Original Body Sect.

As long as Yuhao is persuaded, the Body Sect can rest easy. Even if he dies, he can face the many ancestors of the Body Sect with dignity and have the face to meet his elder brother.

Poison can't kill a patient and earnest heart, but the difficulty lies in the fact that Huo Yuhao is the disciple of that old guy Kong Deming, and that old man is not easy to deal with. Otherwise, as mentioned before, he would have already taken action and wouldn't have bothered to say so much.

If it were Shrek Academy standing in front of him right now, and Yuhao was a student at Shrek Academy, you'd see if he wouldn't mess with Shrek Academy and be finished.

Unbeknownst to him, Kong Deming behind him silently smiled and subtly gave Huo Yuhao an OK sign, which Huo Yuhao instantly understood.

"Your Majesty, is this the 100,000-year soul ring you mentioned?"

After saying that, the second martial soul, the Bell of the End, appeared. The red color of the soul ring, unique to a 100,000-year-old soul beast, filled the world. The crimson color was even more dazzling than the three 100,000-year-old soul rings of Du Bu Si.

"You...I..."

Du Bu Si was completely dumbfounded as he sensed the aura unique to the 100,000-year-old soul ring!

Turning to look at Kong Deming, I saw that the old man was suppressing a laugh, and his body was trembling.

Can anyone explain this to me? What the hell is going on?
His second martial soul, and the first spirit ring of that martial soul is still a 100,000-year limit. How the hell did he manage to do that? Is this still the Douluo Continent he knows?

Has this child opened up?

Finally, after Huo Yuhao and Kong Deming's joint explanation, Du Busi reluctantly accepted the fact.

That means Huo Yuhao's 100,000-year soul ring is real; the incredible luck allowed this child to receive the sacrifice of a 100,000-year soul beast that failed its tribulation.

Yes, that makes sense.

What a load of nonsense!
Back then, in order to hunt souls, their Body Sect sent nearly forty elites to infiltrate the Star Dou Great Forest and hunted down several 100,000-year-old soul beasts in one go, which caused a beast tide.

Now you suddenly tell him that someone can have a 100,000-year soul ring at the age of twelve, before reaching the level of a Soul Master of level forty. Is that reasonable?
Look into my eyes!
Whether it's reasonable or not, it's a fact. He hadn't been poisoned to death, but he had finally recovered and was staring intently at Huo Yuhao with burning eyes.

"A second martial soul, a silver-level awakening, and a 100,000-year soul ring—any one of these could create a top-tier powerhouse. It has to be said that Yuhao, you are truly blessed by the fortune of this world to be able to possess all of these."

He took a deep breath, glanced at Kong Deming, snorted coldly, and made a compromise.

"Make your choice, Yuhao. Do you want to become my disciple? Of course, Old Man Kong will still be your teacher. I think that old fellow has had this purpose from the very beginning."
